Ians Ramblings

I have ordered my first ever Ducati today, a 748 Biposto I am really excited and also really quite nervous about all the costs! I hope it will be a brilliant buy. The really great thing is, it’s one of the things I have always wanted, one of the boyhood dreams I can tick off.

My Ducati 748

I’ve always loved them and have tried to skirt around spending out the money on getting one, by compensating for it with my other bikes but now I really hope I have got my dream bike.

Really looking forward to enjoying a summer on the bike. I will unfortunately have to sell my lovely NC30, so if anyone reading has seen her in previous pictures on the site and wants to make me an offer please just leave a comment on this posting.

Just been reading a page written by a guy who went over and visited the factory back when the 748′s were being produced so I thought I would put a link to it here

It seems that back then they were not making all that many and that guy ordered his and was still waiting 3 or 4 months later and finally had to give up on getting it, harsh.

As well as a rather more geeky but interesting run down of Ducati engineering
